All the game ranches for sale are in the Northern Province of South Africa, in the Phalaborwa, Hoedspruit and Gravelotte areas - and are rich in flora and fauna.
Most are already great tourist attractions. All the ranches are close to the Kruger National Park. Since the park is unfenced, animals regularly cross to neighbouring farms.

My Phalaborwa
The Phalaborwa Voice is the mouthpiece for our community. We'd like to know your views. so please answer the short quiz if you can spare the time. Answer as many or as few questions as you want! We'll publish a variety of answers.
This week, Ursula d'Ivry Russell gives her views:
-
What do you like best about Phalaborwa ?
Quiet, friendly, no traffic hassles and a great environment surrounded by bush, koppies, wildlife on its doorstep and rubs shoulders with Kruger Park
- What do you dislike most about Phalaborwa ?
I don't like to have a police force that appears to be under-staffed and is seldom visible.
- If it was up to you, what would you change about your own town ?
I would like a well-equipped , well-staffed private hospital so people don't have to go to Tzaneen for care and treatment.
- What slogan would you use to advertise Phalaborwa ?
Phalaborwa puts your soul at ease.
- How do you think the town's name should be spelt ?
Phalaborwa (b) Ba-Phalaborwa © Palaborwa (d) other (please specify)
I think Phalaborwa is the correct spelling.
- If you had to tell a tourist one good reason to visit Phalaborwa, what would it be ?
A good base for so many interesting outings:(the mines, the river barge, the Kruger Park , the snake park, Kapama Cheetah Project, Mahalahala Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre, Blyde River )
-
If you could start any business you wanted in Phalaborwa , what would it be ?
Something like Adam Levin's Soul Trading: an outlet for buying, selling and commissioning African crafts. A great potential. Discerning overseas tourists would not find the stuff at Bollanoto inspiring (see Levin's books The Wonder Safaris and The Art of African Shopping - Struik)
